    ......

    Well, I picked Lidell over the guy but made no pick on the Henderson fight. I disagreed with you that Jackson was better at everything than Henderson and I think I was right on that. They were pretty much even everywhere in a razor close fight that Jackson justly won. Jackson better hope Forrest Griffen beats Shogun though. LOL.

    Quintin can prove how good and how much he has left in the next few fights....rematches again Shogun and Silva...should be a good start..or finish...

    Shogun will beat the shit out of Rampage if they ever fought again, he beat Henderson on a close decision, he didn't looked impressive at all in there !!!!

    Henderson clearly won Round 1. Rampage clearly won Rounds 3 and 4. Rounds 2 and 5 could've gone either way. It was a close fight.

    Jackson finished stronger in both those rds and might have swayed the judges in giving it to him.......It did for me because those rds where even most of the time.:dunno:

    It was a razor close match under ANY fucking rules, get real. The guy who said Henderson won round 1, and 2 and 5 were close was correct. Sorry, but it is certainly possible to have Henderson winning 3 rounds. It was a close fucking fight. Certaiinly not the mismatch that you thought it would be. Shogun will beat that ass again and make Quinton his bitch.:bears:

    I didn;t score the whole fight (still waiting for an answer from our resident MMA experts regarding my earlier inquiry). I thought that Rampage won the 4th and 5th, though the 5th was certainly a close round. That said, you seemed to have watched the fight with a more biased view than most around here. You don't exactly make it a secret that you're a Rampage fan.

    To echo other's sentiments, Hendo won the 1st and 2nd, Jackson the 3rd and 4th, and the 5th could have gone either way.

    It seemed like Jackson was wining by the 5th round, then I realized it was actually just 2 rounds a piece.

    I guess the reason for that is Jackson winning rounds was obviously fresher in my mind, as the first 2 were Henderson's, then Rampage started coming on.

    I think there could've been a better case for Henderson beating Rampage than there could be for Bisping beating Hamil.:lol:

    Rampage's striking has improved dramatically. He used to just throw low kicks and shoot in for a slam. He was real raw when he first came into MMA.

    Even Henderson going into the fight said Rampage is a technically better striker than Silva. Silva throws better kicks but I agree that Rampage throws better punches. Silva is wild with his punches. Also Rampage leading up to the fight was training with Shane Mosley on his boxing and it showed.

    I thought it was a close fight. There are two of my 5 favourite MMA fighters and I thought it was a competitve fight with Rampage winning closely but clearly. he got the better of the exchanges striking, controlled the octagon better and seemed to get better control on the ground as well.

    I had Henderson winning round 1 and 2 and Rampage taking 3,4, and 5. Rampage finished the round stronger in round 2 so I can see people giving that round to Rampage.

    The 2 and 5th rds where close until Jackson finished stronger in the end,thats what convinced me and the judges to give those rds too him.I'll put it like this Rampage won clearly in a close fight.:clap: .You picked Shogun? Uh Oh ,you done jinx him like you did Chuck:lol:

    I didn't know enough about Shogun to predict him the first time. I did pick Wandy to beat Jackson both times though :bears: Sorry, no jinx. As for the endings of the rounds swaying them for jackson that is fine. However, if someone though Henderson did enough in the rest of the round that it didn't matter then they could have Henderson winning. Like I said I didn;[t have Henderson winning but I can see how some people did.

    SMH at you bringing up old fights :lol: Your in a slump homey,you was too scared to pick between Rampage vs Hendo.....anyway

    They need to learn how too score a mma fight because the 2 and 5 rds was close with neither fighter standing out most of those rds.I gave those rds to Jackson because he finished stronger and that makes it easier on the judges,people complain about Jackson winning close fights but the man stays busy and he knows how to win the judges over.

    Hamil was robbed no doubt! That was bullshit. He easily won the first two rounds. He out struck Bisping and took him down a few times too. Now way in hell did Bisping deserve that decision. I lost a lot of respect for the guy when he told hamil to go back to wrestling as if he had just been dominated. Fuck Bisping.
